Publication number: 20240095661Abstract: A system and method for managing inventory for an electronic raffle is provided. The system may include an inventory database to store inventory data for one or more items to be sold via the electronic raffle, wherein the inventory data includes in-store inventory data and online inventory data, a mobile application configured to generate a raffle entry for the one or more items, a raffle database configured to store the inventory data and one or more raffle entries, and a middleware server configured to update the in-store inventory data stored in the raffle database based on the updated in-store inventory data obtained from the inventory database. The middleware server selects a first round winning raffle entry, transmits a notification to the mobile device associated with the first round winning raffle entry, and initiates a payment process upon determining that the first round winning raffle entry applies to the lightning round.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2022Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: Hibbett Retail, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Lee Blair, Jerrel Devan Cooley, David Alan Stachowiak, JR., Ryan Christian Besterwitch, Kevin Leung Young

Patent number: 10980968Abstract: This disclosure describes a micro-cutting machine for forming cuts in catheters, guidewires, and similar products. The micro-cutting machine can directly control the dimensions of the resultant beams being cut into these types of products, and can also capture images of each cut for feedback control and accuracy verification. The micro-cutting machine has two cutting blades each with cutting edges aligned with a vertical axis. Motors operate to move the cutting blades in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the stock material being cut to form a pair of opposing grooves in the stock material with each cut.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2018Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: Scientia Vascular, LLCInventors: Jeff Christian, Ryan Christian, James A. Gasbarro, Scott K. Boehmke, John Lippert

Publication number: 20210097678Abstract: Systems and techniques for generating and/or employing a computed tomography (CT) medical imaging fracture model are presented. In one example, a system employs a first convolutional neural network associated with vertebrae segmentation to generate learned vertebrae segmentation data regarding a spine anatomical region related to a CT image. The system also employs a second convolutional neural network associated with fracture segmentation to generate, based on the learned vertebrae segmentation data, learned fracture segmentation data regarding the spine anatomical region. Furthermore, the system detects presence or absence of a medical fracture condition in the CT image based on the learned vertebrae segmentation data and the learned fracture segmentation data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2019Publication date: April 1, 2021Inventors: Sandeep Dutta, Ryan Christian King, Bradley Wright, Mitchel Harris, Bharti Khurana, Robert Kevin Moreland

Patent number: 10835087Abstract: In one example, a wipe dispensing system includes a housing that defines an internal wipe storage area, a lid connected to the housing, a fluid reservoir disposed within the housing, a pump in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir, a fluid discharge manifold in fluid communication with the pump and located proximate a wipe dispensing path. The lid is operably disposed with respect to the pump such that depression of the lid causes the pump to discharge fluid from the fluid discharge manifold, and also causes dispensation of a portion of a wipe from the housing, and a return of the lid from a depressed position to a ‘ready’ position causes the pump to discharge fluid from the fluid discharge manifold, and also causes dispensation of portion of a wipe from the housing.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: The Clorox CompanyInventors: Aidee Duarte, Ryan Christian, Ashby Shaw, Brian Crane

Patent number: 10822973Abstract: Shrouds and shroud segments for gas turbine engines are provided. In one exemplary aspect, a gas turbine engine includes a first rotor blade stage and a second rotor blade stage. The gas turbine engine also includes a shroud formed from a plurality of shroud segments that each have a body and a vane extending from the body. The vane is disposed within the flow path between the first rotor blade stage and the second rotor blade stage to form at least a portion of a nozzle stage. Further, the body of the shroud segment defines an outer wall of the flow path and spans from the first rotor blade stage to the second rotor blade stage. An impingement baffle segment couples the shroud segment with a casing of the gas turbine engine.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2017Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Alan Joseph Parvis, Dane Michael Dale, Ryan Christian Goff
